"Coming Home" at Hallowed Cinque
Some say home is where the heart is.
One dictionary describes Home (n): a place or feeling of belonging.
Others describe it as another four-letter word. &#@!
There’s signage like Home Sweet Home and live, laugh, love–but what about death, despair, desperation? These things can be present in homes too, in our bodies, in our communities. “Coming Home” is not just feel good platitudes we put on the wall, but embraces all the feelings we navigate in coming home.
Exhi-BIKE-tion
ExhiBIKEtion is a bike-themed community art event showcasing artists, makers, and crafters who are inspired by bikes and/or cycling. For one night, we exhibit donations and invite our supporters to attend and purchase the work.
All donated proceeds from art sales will contribute toward our mission of ensuring equitable access to sustainable and affordable transportation by providing bikes and repairs at low or no cost, education of bike maintenance, and safety as well as fostering an open community space.
